Heres the paint code for cinder grey  (courtsey of an old post from ken)

253-9558

I think I got mine mixed by protech paints in acylic, then 5 angle camera converted to ppg 2pak.  They also used a matting agent in the paint to remove the 2pak natural gloss.

The color ended up pretty dark / almost black.  Dunno how close mine is to original, but at least an attempt was made.

Cheers
Peter.
